Made my goal for the wedding

Saturday, September 08, 2007

I don't have pictures yet of the wedding, since my daughter was married 2 weeks ago. I made my goal and then some to lose 3 pounds by the time she was married. It was as hard as I thought, and I even had so many people ask me what I was doing about my weight at the wedding. I only lost 5 pounds from the last wedding of my other daughter last year, but it must have been noticed. I do have a small frame, so I suppose any weight gain or loss would be noticeable but I still maintain a good weight lifting program so I do not look weak. I would rather have a few extra pounds of muscle than a few less pounds on the scale. Proper diet and exercise including weights is an absolute must especially as one gets older and needs that muscle to be strong and resilient.
